Refill Kit for HP 950 / 951 and 932 / 933

Even with the two cartreage swap.. The printer still didn't want to take it.. So the recycle processes need a little more work.. Fun

easy to follow instructions. but my printer still required me to buy a new cartrage

Do NOT buy this product. The other reviews that claim there are youtube videos and great printed help are not referring to this product. Look at the picture in the product and note that these are hypodermic needles and syringes...not a plastic needle head of some sort that you poke a hole in with a pin. This is NOT the JetTec product.I believe I followed the directions, but they are not written well and the explanatory pictures are impossible to see anything on.Step #1 Use the drill to push the ball on the refill hole into inside the cartridge. (That's their English, not mine).The little drill device is neither made to fit on the ball or made to push hard enough on the ball to break it through (and that is what you are doing....breaking it through). Plan on having semi-permanent dents in your fingers after this effort and you better have strong hands to begin with. I'm sure my wife would never be able to do this.Step # 2 Fill the syringe with ink. The cartridge will hold 20ml of ink. The high-capacity cartridge will hold 40ml of ink.So I had the high-capacity color cartridges (951xl). I don't believe they hold 40ml of ink. I put in 20. I think the 40ml is for the black 950xl cartridges. But who knows since there is nothing that explains what they are really referring to.Step # 3 Insert the needle into the filling hole and slowly inject the ink into the cartridge.Seems simple enough...accept the needles are really sharp (like hypodermic needles) and from the videos that I've seen there is something akin to a plastic sandwich back on the inside of the cartridge. I'm pretty sure that razor sharp needle would destroy that bag if it even glanced against the side so I tried not to go too deep into the cartridge...but of course their is nothing in the directions that says one way or another.Step # 4 Use the rubber plug to seal the refill holeThose little multicolored things in the picture are little rubber plugs. They seem to work pretty well to fill the hole, but I'm not convinced since the process of poking the ball out of the refill hole with that drill thingy is not a precision task by any means.Step #5 Reinstall the cartridge into the printer.Everywhere else I've read also tells you to use a different cartridge than the one that is currently in the printer (no problem for me, I have about 40 used cartridges flooding my desk shelf). Nothing about that major problem is in the directions.So I went to print with my newly refilled cartridges and the quality was awful. I tried cleaning the heads (all 3 cleaning levels) of my HP 8610 3 times which seemed to help, but then when I went to print the covers of my brochure, the quality was just awful. Awful. Awful. Awful. Granted, I'm trying to do picture quality printing, but my printer is supposed to be able to do picture quality printing.This seems to be a knock-off of an actual HP refill kit. Definitely not the same product most of the reviews refer to.The good news, I went and picked up some HP cartridges and after a short period of time my printer seems to be working just fine again. Not something I had any confidence in when I started having problems.

Instruction both written and on youtube are good. Product works as advertised. I had one cartridge that leaked a bit afterwards. I took a bit of ink out of (purged again) and all was well. Fairly easy to use.I had a couple of questions about the product and I called JetTek. Great customer service and knowledgeable staff and very friendly. I actually got them before they opened and they still took my questions. Good job!Difficult if not impossible to use syringe to get ink out of bottle. If mouth of bottle was wider it would work OK. Solution will probably be to put ink in plastic cup prior to filling syringe, but you always will get a bit of waste this way and another possible way to spill.Must use tack to poke holes in purging needle. Why doesn't it come with the holes already in it? Not difficult to do just thought it would be nicer if it came pre-poked.Overall a very good and actually a very easy way to refill my HP 950 and 951 cartridges. I'd recommend this product.

This kit is meant for medium use printers. If you have a need for more printing more quantity, then you need a higher volume system which also be found on Amazon.Reminder: HP Tip, you need backup cartridges with this refill kit because the HP printer monitors how long it takes for you place an new one in the slot. Supposedly if you go over 30 seconds the printer will assume you have an aftermarket refill and will not let you use the refilled cartridge. This does happen, I learned this little kink after I purchased the ink without a backup cartridge. Expect to spend $85 to $100 to set up your refill system, but this is vastly cheaper than buying HP cartridges.

The instructions on how to refill HP 932/933 (regular and XL) cartridges are very clear, but getting just the right angle to fill them properly (without spilling out) is a little tricky.You really must push the filling plastic needle in FULLY to get the ink to fill properly.I will say that the quality of the ink (I've tried the black so far) is very good and I cannot tell the difference between the official HP ink and the one supplied.Expect that you may spill a little ink the first couple of times you try to do this, but the savings are tremendous.

There are tiny little plastic bags inside the cartridges that are filled with ink. This product's solution is to fill it up with a razor-sharp hypodermic needle. So of course, the bags easily puncture and leak ink everywhere, totally ruining the cartridges.DO NOT BUY. There are better solutions elsewhere.

did exactly as advertised - directions were fairly easy to follow - it will make a mess and gloves are recommended - if not, the ink did wash off without a lot of problems. I did this inside a cardboard box which contained all of the splashes. Pleased with the results
